The team split home games between Cincinnati and Cleveland in their first season. A car accident on the way to a game took the lives of 2 players and severely injured 3 others. The Buckeyes still played out the season, but lost every game the rest of the year. The team would bounce back in the following seasons and went on to win 2 Negro American League titles, including a 1947 Negro World Series championship.
